    Description: Many coral reef fish species aggregate at specific times and locations for the purpose of spawning. This study examined the spatial and temporal distribution of spawning aggregations in the Seychelles. An interview-based survey of the principal stakeholders, mainly artisanal fishers, yielded 89 reports of aggregation fishing for 26 demersal and semi-pelagic fish species. Grouper aggregations were largely concentrated in the outer coralline islands of the exclusive economic zone, whilst those of snappers and rabbitfishes were mainly reported from locations on the Seychelles Bank. The spatial patterns among fish families were attributed to a combination of differences in species abundance and distribution as well as variation in fishing effort. Spawning periodicity reported by fishers indicated that for snappers and rabbitfishes, the most activity occurred across a protracted period of October to April/May, with peaks in activity at either end of that period. Grouper spawning activity was concentrated in the northeast monsoon months of November to January. The findings of this study suggest that several spawning aggregations are targeted by fishers on a regular basis, a practice that constitutes a primary issue for artisanal fisheries research and management in the Seychelles.

    Notes: Abstract –  We examine patterns in fish species assemblages in the Toxaway and Horsepasture rivers, two high elevation streams in North Carolina, USA. This region is noted for extreme topographical relief, high cumulative annual rainfall and many rare and endemic plants and animals. The study area encompasses a portion of the Blue Ridge Escarpment and the associated Brevard Fault Zone. We hypothesise that major waterfalls and cascade complexes have acted to limit invasion and colonisation by fishes from downstream. This hypothesis is supported by longitudinal fish assemblage patterns in our study streams. Fish species richness in Toxaway River increased from 4 to 23 between Lake Toxaway and Lake Jocassee, a distance of 10 river km. We found similar discontinuities in neighbouring Horsepasture River and Bearwallow Creek. We found no instances of species replacement along this elevation gradient, and the trend in increased diversity downstream showed discontinuities coincident with sharp elevation breaks. With regard to theories posited to explain community formation in headwater stream fish communities (especially in those characterised by high topographical relief), we suggest coloniser ‘access’ may be more important than other factors including competitive interactions.

    Notes: [Auszug] This evidence is most clearly seen in the Swartkrans skull SKA9, the occipital region of which has now been prepared in acetic acid. The skull has been sheared considerably, but the region from slightly posterior to the glabella to approximately the position of the bregma, as well as a good deal of ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN a recently published essay1, Prof. S. Zuckerman has discussed at some length the evolutionary position of the australopithecines under the three headings of evidence relating to: (1) the brain, (2) the face and teeth, and (3) upright posture. The first two sections are dismissed after very brief ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Cells of P. salinaria were harvested from a three-day culture grown on the medium devised [by Katznelson and Lochhead2 but modified to contain glycerol as the carbohydrate addition. Cells were washed once with 0 -025 M phosphate buffer, pH. 8 -0, containing 15 per cent sodium chloride. Since intact ...

    Notes: [Auszug] A. H. Schultz has recently shown1 that in all manlike apes and in the majority of monkeys the sequence of eruption is very definite (brackets show variation): M19 A, J2, M2, (P, P), (Ms, C). The premolars are variable, and M3 and C may vary in order. But the 2nd molar is always the fourth tooth ...
